How to Make Anme S Apple Crumb Pie

1. **Make the Crust:** Whisk together 1 1/4 cups flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut in 1/2 cup cold shortening using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. **Add Water:** Gradually sprinkle in 1/4 cup ice water, mixing with a fork until the dough just comes together. Add more water, a teaspoon at a time, if needed.
3. **Chill the Dough:** Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
4. **Prepare the Filling:** In a large bowl, combine 6 peeled, cored, and sliced apples, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
5. **Assemble the Pie:** On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate.
6. **Add Filling:** Pour the apple filling into the pie crust.
7. **Make the Crumb Topping:** In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar. Cut in 1/2 cup cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture is crumbly.
8. **Crumb Topping:** Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the apple filling.
9. **Bake:** Cover the pie loosely with aluminum foil. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25 minutes.
10. **Finish Baking:** Remove the foil and bake for another 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
